Ta-Déja Taylor's POV The next wednesday
The first thing I did after waking up was to say a nice lengthy prayer, I made sure to include my sister and aunty , and asked lord to guide us all on the right path.
Ever since Xy left , the house has gotten so much more boring , dead to be specific, your lucky to even hear cars pass out front, or when aunty decide fi drop some lady saw pan Saturday den bups , Sunday morning bright an early a gospel a play, Aunty nuh know ar mind.
Its no secret that I miss my sister but I'm old enough to understand that if she was suppose to just sit down here doing nothing , she wouldn't even be able to better her self.
This fine Saturday morning, as expected lady saw is playing on the boom box as Aunty rearranges the furniture in the small living room space.
I stood there watching as she whined her waist as the song switched to Dy- Dy.
Lady naah miss a beat enuh.
I laughed out when she now held her side and stood up straight shaking her head.
" aunty yuh nuh see yuh naave the Megan knees again" I chuckled going over to her helping to push the couch from one corner to the next.
" Megan wah? A seh mi nuh know weh uno young people talking come bout" she hissed her teeth.
" want help with anything in here suh?" I asked softly.
From living with aunty almost all my life, I've grown into the 'cleanliness is close to godliness life style as it is just simply right.
Ive heard that line along with' a lazy woman is a nasty woman ' , and I try my best not to go against them.
Even if where you live isn't the biggest , or a mansion of any sort , just trying your best to keep it clean is good enough.
" no , not in here baby, yuh can manage the half bag a chick feed ?" She asked and I nodded.
" alright gwaan round a back , inna the shed beside the foul coop , yuh nuh affi lift it just use di pan , tek out some a the feeding and full the feeding pan weh inna the coup, and full the water pan put in there too, nuh strain yuh self though" she threw the last part over her shoulder as I already started walking to the back yard .
'God know mi fraid a dem chicken yah enuh.' I thought as I put on my outdoor slippers heading out the small walk way cut out from the grass, heading to the shed which held ;a water drum for the animals, feeding , ropes , vinegar and some animal medicines.
But mi rather feed the chicken dem than tie out ih goat, mi?!
Yuh fraid a everything.
I took my time flipping over the water pan and placing it down , immediately the chickens started swarming around me , heading to the water and the feeding.
